Merge Transactions Overview

The merge transactions process prepares data for calculation by verifying punches and pay codes and organizing the data for the TimeSaver Calc (calculation) Engine.

After the transactions are verified, they are divided into two categories, valid and invalid. The valid transactions progress to the calculation process; the invalid transactions are sent to the View Invalid Transactions module where they can be corrected.

Transactions are usually merged on an automated basis. However, there are times when you need to use this module to merge transactions as needed. For example, you may want to merge transactions manually after correcting invalid transactions to make sure all corrections were successful.

Correcting and merging transactions are steps that may need to be repeated. Repeat these steps until you are satisfied that the data is accurate and ready for calculation.

You will establish your own pattern of how often you need to look for invalid transactions, correct them, and merge them again.
